Abstract
AbstractBackgroundVarious neurological disorders have been reported after vaccination against coronavirus disease 2019, one of which is Guillain–Barré Syndrome (GBS).Case PresentationWe report a case of a 73‐year‐old woman who developed GBS and extra‐GBS manifestations 19 days after the second dose of BNT162b2 mRNA vaccine. She presented lower limb predominant muscle weakness and loss of tendon reflexes. Nerve conduction study showed acute motor and sensory axonal neuropathy. In addition, she developed notable deep sensory ataxia, and showed positive pathological reflex, gaze‐evoked nystagmus and altered consciousness, which suggested brainstem involvement.ConclusionsThis is the first coronavirus disease 2019 vaccine‐related GBS complicated with such central nervous system manifestations.
